Quality Killers in PCB Manufacturing – Photoresist Semi-Polymer

Quality Killers in PCB Manufacturing - Photoresist Semi-Polymer

Quality Killers in PCB Manufacturing – Photoresist Semi-Polymer In the PCB manufacturing process, many tasks require the use of “photoresist materials,” including inner layer wet film, inner layer dry film, outer layer dry film, and green solder mask. It is a chemical material that, after exposure to light, produces different solubility in the developing solution … Read more

Understanding Copper Foil in PCB Substrates

Understanding Copper Foil in PCB Substrates

The main conductor material used in PCBs is copper foil, which is used for transmitting signals and currents. At the same time, the copper foil on the PCB can also serve as a reference plane to control the impedance of transmission lines or as a shielding layer to suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI). Additionally, during the … Read more

Essential Multi-layer PCB Design Techniques

Essential Multi-layer PCB Design Techniques

Remember when I first did PCB Layout, multi-layer board prototyping costs were very high, and the delivery time was about seven or eight days. Due to cost and time considerations, I often only considered using double-sided boards for routing. Then, holding many design rules that would often “conflict” with each other or experience-based rules circulating … Read more

Copper foil is the main material used in PCBs, primarily for transmitting current and signals. The copper foil on a PCB can also serve as a reference plane to control the impedance of transmission lines or as a shielding layer to suppress electromagnetic interference. During the PCB manufacturing process, characteristics such as the peel strength … Read more

Essential Guide to High Multilayer PCB Manufacturing Techniques

Essential Guide to High Multilayer PCB Manufacturing Techniques

(There are benefits at the end of the article, don’t miss out!) As electronic devices develop towards higher performance and smaller sizes, the precision and performance requirements for PCBs are also increasing. High multilayer PCBs can provide more routing layers, allowing for more complex and dense circuit designs, thus meeting the demands for high-frequency and … Read more
